When we got to her house she had several of her own dogs going to the bathroom wherever they wanted, and she didn't make any effort to clean it up. She brought our puppy out of a back room (she wouldn't allow us to go back there) and the little guy smelled terrible. He had urine and feces matted in his hair. It was obvious he had never been cleaned in his whole life. I did want to leave, but I felt so bad for this little puppy, I had to buy him. In the morning we took him to the vet (he was vomitting and bleeding out of his rectum). He had Giardia (a very contagious parasite) so we had him treated and also had to have our other yorkie treated because it is so contagious. I called Diana Kram and told her what had happened. She blamed the whole thing on me, saying I had stressed the puppy by giving him a bath and that is why he had Giardia. She refused to pay any vet bills even though she sold us a very sick puppy. The puppy also has a bladder infection (we're hoping that doesn't turn out to be something more). We've spent a lot of money in vet bills and have dealt with one of the rudest people I have ever met. Please beware. |
Thanks for the heads up....I am always worried when I contact a breeder outside of my area...i like to see where and how they are living/treated...including the parents..and any other pets in the home...
Hope in the end everything works out for you!
